Book signings next week at Library

If you're planning on hitting up the Little Dixie Regional Library next week, get your ink pens and Sharpies ready.

If you want your book signed, that is.

Columbia Tribune reporter and bestselling author Rudi Keller will be in town on Tuesday (June 25), discussing the siege of Vicksburg through the memoirs of Ephraim McDowell Anderson, of Randolph County — a corporal in the Confederate Army.

Keller will be selling and signing copies of his bestselling book, "Life During Wartime: The Civil War Comes to Missouri."

Attendees of the program, which begins at 6 p.m., are invited to bring photos or letters pertaining to the Civil War, to potentially be included in future entries or books.

Three local authors will be signing copies of their books and visiting with readers on Thursday, June 27, starting at 4 p.m.

The Little Dixie Regional Library will be welcoming Ken Ralls, Cindy Blackmore, and Michele Jorgenson to speak, sell, and sign that afternoon.

Ralls is the author of the McKay's Island series, as well as numerous children's books.

Blackmore has written two titles: "Remember to Laugh" and "The Journal of Our Journey."

Jorgenson — a Macon resident — will be here to talk about her newest book, "After Darkness, Light!"

Adults are encouraged to join the Groundbreaking Reads reading program going on throughout the summer at the library. Kindles have been donated by the Moberly Friends of the Library and the Paris Friends of the Library for adults to win, as well as multitudes of other smaller prizes. Prizes are offered each week, the library's release states, with dozens of winners.
